Anadarko campus in The Woodlands could grow again

Speaking at a real estate conference earlier this week, the head of real estate for global oil and gas independent Anadarko Petroleum Corp. said the company had additional land for another building at its campus in The Woodlands.

“We’ve got another 600,000 square feet we can put up once we’ve designed it,” John Frere said Tuesday at ULI Houston’s Suburban Marketplace at the Marriott Westchase.
